Hi Tyler, Yes, the less than great spatial accuracy of the StatsCan RNF are well known (and they are the first to admit this). StatsCan is intending to move over to the NRN when they can (i.e., once enough provinces have released address ranged data). The current RNF has been rubber sheeted to match the NRN to the greatest extent possible.
